Without further ado, go enjoy this oneshot!!

Scar paced back and forth in his room, his finger tracing the wall as he walked. He sighed and looked down at Jellie, who was circling around his feet anxiously. He glanced guiltily over at his communicator. New messages flooded in, mainly from Grian and Impulse, but he didn't respond anymore. Missed calls, missed meetings, missed announcements. He had so many notifications but he just couldn't respond. He didn't feel like how he was feeling was right. He wandered over to his bed, perching on the edge. He hesitated before picking up his communicator. He only wanted to look at one person's messages. "Just check their messages, send them a reply then turn it off. That's all you need to do Scar. Check, reply, switch off. Check, reply, switch off." He muttered to himself. Scar quickly opened his DMs with Impulse to see a frantic amount of messages, the more recent ones catching his eye the most.

<ImpulseSV> Come on Scar. Please respond... It's been days... I don't want to lose you... We've lost Skizz already, I can't lose you too...
<ImpulseSV> Scar... Are you ok?.. I've seen you in your base and all... Just haven't wanted to bother and upset you..y'know?
<ImpulseSV> Scar? It's been a while.. I miss your happy smile.. I miss your joyful voice... What happened?.. Can I help in any way?... I'd probably be no help though... It's my fault isn't it? It was my fault with Skizz... It's now my fault with you.. I'm a screw-up of a brother... I'm sorry.
<ImpulseSV> I wish I could see you... The other hermits and I are just trying to focus on comforting Grian and Cub and stuff... Only Gem and Pearl know about.. Y'know.. The two of us being siblings and all... They're both helping me with my pain but it's hard to fake around everyone else.. I wish you were here with me in person. Sending you the best wishes for a great recovery for whatever you're going through <3 - Your Brother, Impulse.
<ImpulseSV> Xisuma went through my communicator. He tried to sympathise but I just got pissed.. I messed up, didn't I? I miss you Scar.. I miss seeing my brother jumping around, having fun with his friends while I stopped the group from doing anything too chaotic.. It's now just a negative and upsetting place everytime we hold a Boatem meeting... I'm sorry... Did I mess up as a brother again?.. I'm sorry for everything I did wrong Scar. I'm sorry if this is my fault. I'm sorry I had to be the one to be your brother. Please respond soon, if you want to. Just knowing you've read these messages will make me happy.. Love you brother.. - Impulse

Scar felt a tear roll down his cheek after reading one message, more and more joining that lonesome tear as he read each message, most of them signed with love from his brother. Memories of the three of them (himself, Impulse and Skizz) came flooding back and Scar realised how much he needed his brother, and how much this situation reminded him of Skizz.

<GoodTimesWithScar> Impulse.. Don't say that... I miss you too.. Just emotions and figuring out who I am and what happened to me and just everything is happening and I just don't know what to do so I just isolated myself because I thought it would help everyone. Turns out it did the opposite. I'm sorry. Please come over ASAP, if you want of course.. I just want to see my brother in person again.. You aren't a screw-up and it wasn't your fault. Don't apologise. /gen

He placed his communicator on his nightstand and flopped back onto his bed, listening to the birds sing their merry tune. He felt Jellie climb onto his chest, lying down as he hummed the birds' tune. He pulled his hand up and stroked Jellie, her purring filling his heart with joy. He heard the door open and footsteps but thought nothing of it, knowing it was probably Grian or someone coming to bother him, knowing his brother would never be this quick at arriving somewhere.

"You alright Scar?"
"What do you want?"
"Wow, invite me over and now give me attitude? I didn't expect that from my little brother! I'm shocked!!"

"Haha very funny Impulse."

"Ok but for real, you alright? It's been ages... I've missed you.. We all miss you.."

"I know.. I've just been trying to figure out.. Me, y'know?"
"Yeah.. You want brotherly help?"
"It would be appreciated, yeah.."

He felt the other side of the bed sink slightly as Impulse perched on the edge of the bed. Silence filled the room, only being broken by Jellie's purring.

"So what did you need to figure out about yourself Scar?"
"Well I feel like I'm meant to have a love interest, I'm meant to grow up with a family, I'm meant to do all the stuff an adult's meant to do. But I don't want love, I don't want a family, I don't want to grow up and do all that. I want to stay obsessed with Disney with you and all our friends by our side y'know.. I don't want love but how do I tell people I don't want to be loved in the way they love me..?" He felt a tear roll down, taking a shaky breath before continuing. "Then there's a voice in the back of my head telling me to cut myself off, telling me to stay away, telling me I'm a monster, telling me I'll hurt you all if I keep talking with you all. It hurt, it got so bad.. So I listened to it, not realizing how much I'm replicating the situation with.. y'know.. I just want to bring everyone happiness, but how can I do that when I'm not really happy myself?"

Impulse looked down at their brother and sighed, seeing the emotional wreck Scar was in. They started taking deep breaths, Scar instinctively following. They knew how hard it was to figure out who you were and how you identified and how to block out the voices, they had been there before, multiple times.

"Scar, listen. When we were kids, our society was horrible. They taught us all the stuff about having to have a family and wife and to grow up properly. In reality, you can do whatever you want. You don't need romance, you don't need a family, you don't need to get rid of your Disney obsession, you can stay with me and all our friends. From what you've described, you sound like you might be aroace, just like me. It means you feel little to no romantic attraction, and little to no, well, y'know. You still feel platonic attraction, like with family and friends, but just romance and having a lover is something that you don't want and don't feel. You can still have a platonic partner, like me and Tango, but you don't have to love anyone if you don't want to, okay? Now with the voice, I've dealt with that myself when we were younger. It's hard to fight, but isolating yourself was not the smart thing to do. I'm not mad in any way, you did what you thought was right, you think it would go away. But it didn't. You see, the best thing to do is ignore it. We can leave your little isolation together and I can cheer you up all the time if you want, just to get your mind off it. You can come visit Tango and stuff with me, you can stay by my side. We can tell people about us being brothers, we can-"

Impulse was cut off by the door opening, Xisuma entering the room and seeing the two brothers.

"Are you two alright? Just thought I'd come check up on ya." Xisuma questioned.

"I'm alright, just been tryna figure out stuff about myself. Impulse has helped me though!!" Scar beamed.

"Yeah.. I'm alright. Sorry for lashing out at you before 'Suma, I was mad and just upset someone else knew and I just got all emotional and I'm-" Impulse spluttered.

"It's fine Impulse, I would have done the same. Who else knows about the two of you by the way?" Xisuma responded, cutting them off mid-sentence.
"Gem and Pearl."

Scar picked Jellie up, sitting up and placing her beside him. He stood up and hugged Xisuma before hugging his brother too.

"Thank you, both of you."

"It's no problem Scar!"

"No problem brother."

Scar let go and stood at his door. He went outside, the two following him. He went around, seeing all the hermits and just told them he was okay, etc.

Over the last few days, Impulse has been trying to cheer me up. I loved it when me and Mumbo were promoting my waxing services and they said "No wax, just an axe, that's your slogan! You're welcome! Thank you! Buh-bye!" and got on a pig to travel around Boatem while blasting circus music. Honestly, that was amazing. I'm so glad they're doing all this for me. I hope it's doing okay mentally itself too. I wouldn't want it doing this all for me with their mental health not being great either. Alright I should go check on the others, I have a boatem meeting soon. Byee!!

Scar left his room and ran over to the Boatem Pole and Boatem Hole and waited for the others to arrive.

"I'm glad you two are happy... But what happened to rescuing me?.. What happened to us?... At least you've found happiness, right where you are.." Skizz muttered, staring into the orb of magic. He sighed and closed the orb, heading down to his new 'family'.

"There you are Syed. Ready for the plan to be put into action?"
"Ready as I'll ever be.."

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
